    FOR THOSE WHO NEED MORE CONTEXT: At 1:20 PM CSX train I032 collided with parked rock train L743 at about 40-50 miles per hour due to a misaligned switch at the tip of the funnel in Folkston, Georgia. No one was killed. PTC was out so that the trains would instantly be thrown into emergency upon entering Folkston due to the track work. After the track crew was finished, they misaligned a switch, causing the intermodal train to come down that track streaking.

    Way back when, when I was a kid, a train derailed near my house that had a car filled with huge blocks of Nestle chocolate. No one was injured, but all the neighborhood kids gained some weight. Maybe 1977-78ish.

      @michaelsullivan3581 3 месяца назад +39

      The train going by slammed on Emergency Braking as soon as the Engineer saw that a train was parked right in front of him. That was the popwoosh of the train dumping its air. The big whams at the end was the train smashing into the parked train. At the end you can see the smoke from one of the locomotives that caught Fire. Positive train control was temporarily shut down because the stopped train was preforming maintenance! The first version I heard said that a turnout had been left in the wrong position, putting the trains on the same track! No fatalities that I have heard of!

    I saw a man in my neighborhood when I was a kid in a Peterbuilt truck painted like the one in the show Movin On....Green, shiny . Get hit by a train it seemed like in slow motion...he turned the corner to cross the tracks and boom...car in front of him stalled. He couldn't go forward nor back up...I just sat there on my bike and watched the freight train take that truck about 150 yards down the track....Broke both of his legs but he survived and was fine. Now a days a kid would say they have PTSD because they saw it.

    @tonyburzio4107 3 месяца назад +3

    The crew called in for an emergency and reported a fire, but the dispatcher said he'd send EMS. Send it where? No indication of location, or that they went down the wrong track. The dispatcher will be off by miles, sending EMS into an unknown situation with a fire in progress, if the ambulance can find the dirt road leading to the crash site. This is pretty common in train derailments, like in Glendale where the railroad dispatcher did not have coordinates to give to the 911 dispatcher, delaying response while the EMS and fire teams looked for the crash.

      when the switch is taken off power, all the dispatcher can see is the track light that it causes to pop up on their screen letting them know it’s off. same thing happens if a derail is left off on an industry track that comes off the mainline or a siding

    • @thomasklimchuk441
      @thomasklimchuk441 3 месяца назад +1

      If this was in ctc the approach signal to the home signal would have indicated a yellow.Now on some railways mainline switches going into a siding there was a box that was to be open and you had to move the lever inside to release the lock Once open the signals in that block would indicate a red signal In dark territory if the switch was left open the dispatcher would have notified by the crew leaving that location and was authorized to do so The next crew on train in their orders would get when they copied their clearance would have that a switch in such and such location was set in the diverging position and the train would approach the location prepared to stop Once the switch was restored the crew would report it line and locked
